backstage is getting a little subversive in this thread! this is dangerous, all you talented media technology types suddenly becoming evil :-) maybe you need a "hackstage" splinter guerilla group? although seriously, mobile on the tube would boost mobile application X% in London, so what does backstage think it should do with all that? vibrating alerts when you reach a pre-set station would be useful for those of us who like to snooze on the train... but i'm sure the list can come up with something more "media" than that! how about another competition Mr F?
james ps and OT: this whole "w***r on the mobile" doesn't really apply in hong kong cos ppl are generally very considerate with their mobiles, often talking behind their hands and usually very quietly. the loud irritating ones are the westeners (about 1/20-40 passengers) but i quite enjoy hearing what depths people will go to to try and impress their fellow passengers. i mean really, you've got to laugh at these people, no? did dom joly's excellent work not sink in?? perhaps the beeb needs to do a re-run. massive phone on the tube blocking the doors..
